Best sound quality
I use it to record my spotify (i have premium) songs and then transfer it to my iPod. All NCH softwares (incl. this) has a very easy to use interface.
Even in trial period it lets you record in 320kbps
Sometimes I record a full spotify playlist (4-5 hr) and then cut the whole record in pieces. I'm using this for more than 1 year now and never encountered a single issue.

Cons

As I told I never encountered a single issue

Summary

Peoples are saying it has trojan but my kaspersky says its a green. !!! I downloaded this software from NCH's official website not from cnet. I have a Intel i5 and 5.1 sound card and windows 7 . Maybe there is a problem with this cnet version..

I bought the licence (about &#163;18) and registered the product, but this new version of SoundTap doesn't work. So, went to get support from NCH, the software company and only found frustration. Firstly NCH want you to pay for them to respond properly to the customer. I am not paying extra for aftersales service. They have not replied to my messages to them after a reasonable time, and their site seems to make it impossible to apply for a refund. Sadly this kind of avoidance of having to supply support to products purchased seems characteristic of many of these companies, and you get angry and inevitably wonder if this is deliberate, cynical policy. Disheartening - and costly.

Summary

Perhaps this is a good product? Perhaps I shall never know? But for NCH to charge for decent support, after the customer has bought the product, and otherwise not to respond for help, or a refund, is, to put it politely, not good.

Works great under Vista and 7. Records from your COMPUTER, not just ONLINE. Note the difference.

Cons

Win 8 won't let you even install it

Summary

Prior to Win 8, I'm not getting any of the bad things the other comments have said. It recorded exactly what I heard. But I've got a moderate system, not a low-end or ancient one, so sound would be hard for a cheap system to record.
